Well that raises the question. Is MS even SERIOUS about online gaming?

Sure FPS, Racing, and sports are nice.

But what gives online it's real meat are MMORPGs... Taking out the HD kills that possibility.

Sure you can argue about alternative storage methods... but it's highly unlikely we will see the amount of storage space necessary for a MMORPG.

1. No HD
2. No Backward compatiabilty (VERY dissapointing)

X-Box 2 is a step backwards, no matter which way you look at it.
